FX and TWIN Belt scales

FX and TWIN scales were designed for weighing bulk products inthe    extractive,    mineral,    cement,    fertilizer    or    phosphates production,   agri-industry,   sugar   refinery,   timber,   recycling industry market sectors and other activities using belt conveyors.

The  scales  can  be  installed  in  a  new  conveyor  or  can  easily replace  an  existing  conveyor  roller  station.  These  continuous weighing  infrastructures  can  be  combined  with  PRECIA MOLENI 410 BS electronics.

The accuracy of these scales can be from +/- 0.5 % to +/- 1 % for a conveyor having a belt width up to 1200 mm for FX model and beyond for TWIN model.

 

The FX / TWIN scales is composed of:

•  2 identical strain gauge sensor blocks equipped with an integrated overload stop and a clamping system for transport.The  FX  blocks  have  a  built-in  adjustment  device  allowing adjusting  the  weighing  trough  height  with  respect  to  theconveyor troughs.

•  1 specific roller station manufactured according to the current conveyor section to be equipped. For ISO 53300 and DIN 53301 standard conveyors, this station is equipped with an adjustment device allowing selecting the trough angle between 20° and 45° depending on the one on the conveyor. Whatever the conveyor profile, a station consists of:

•  Screws  incorporated  into  the  weighing  trough  allowing height adjustment of the 3 rollers and the fine alignment ofeach  roller  with  respect  to  those  of  the  upstream  and downstream stations. This device allows carrying out a realweighing   plan   and   eliminate   measuring   disturbances related to banding.

•  Two   standard   weight   brackets   allow   suspending   thestandard  weights  easily  and  carrying  out  a  calibration safely because the brackets are outside of the conveyor.-A protective tube passes the sensor cable to the junctionbox or weight transmitter. 

The FX / TWIN totalizing scales can be installed on any type of trough belt conveyor with a heavy or light frame, in profiles, shell, latticeor tubular.
